### About This EventDomestic violence can happen in any relationship, but the experiences of LGBTQIA+ survivors are too often overlooked.
Join **Pride Houston® 365 for Purple Thursday: Breaking the Silence on Domestic Violence**, an honest, survivor-centered community conversation about domestic violence and intimate partner violence, the barriers survivors face, how to recognize abuse, where to find help, and how we can better support the people we care about.
This is a **guided conversation, not a series of formal speeches**, bringing together people with lived experience and professionals working directly in advocacy, LGBTQ+ support, mental health and legal protections.
**Recognize It → Understand It → Get Help → Support Someone → Take Action**
